Answer:

65 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

cats: dogs: total

5:     3:        5+3=8

We need 8 to be 104

104/8 = 13

Multiply each by 13

cats: dogs: total

5*13:   3*13:  8*13

65        39     104

There are 65 cats and 39 dogs

In around of golf, the lowest score wins. At the end of a round you have score -3 and your friend has score -4. Who won the roun
scoray [572]

Answer: The friend won the round.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the lowest score.

The lowest score means the smallest value.

With intergers, as the number gets farther away from zero to the left, the smaller the value is. The middle number is zero on a number line. The numbers to the left of zero are negative. The number to the write of zero are positive.

As you move to the left on the number line, the numbers get smaller. As you move to the right on  a number line, the values get bigger

Since -4 is farther away from zero to the left on a number line than -3, -4 is smaller.

Hence -4 is smaller than -3. -4 is one more to the left than -3 so -4 is smaller than -3.

Hence the friend won the round.

Choose a variable to represent one of the unknowns. Express the remaining unknowns in terms of the variable you chose in step 1.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Let's just choose "x" as our variable for the length of a side of the triangle.

Two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side.

A triangle has 3 sides. Make the smallest side x then the two equal sides that are double the smallest side are both equal to 2x

The perimeter of the triangle is 35 inches. Perimeter is the sum of all sides.

x + 2x + 2x = 35

5x = 35

x = 7

So the smallest side is 7, and the other two sides are 14.
